Skill-building is unavoidable in The Sims 4, with so many life necessities 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:tied to skill progression, but you’ll likely want to home in on what your Sims goals and aspirations are and grow those talents in time. As you reach high levels of skills (or, even better, max t💧🍌hem out), you stand the chance to potentially gain a new Mastery Perk.

The higher the skill level, the better the chances. As such, you’ll notice that Elders are most likely to have these Perks innately, since they’ll have had more time to master their passions throughout their lives. Younger Sims aren’t barred from obtaining these perks, but it’s vastly more difficult for them, since the Perks are related to mastering a skill.

Once obtained, Mastery Perks serve a variety of purposes, based on which Perks your Sim has earned. Your Sim might discover manually activated Perks, like those that bestow some extra experience onto other Sims around them or improves the quality of an item (which is 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:great for teaching classes), or passive Perks that are only applicable to themselves but provide a similar boost or ability, like those that offer extra satisfaction or experience for the Sim that has the Perk. They can be found in the Skills tab of your Simology panel.

Just beware that each Sim can only have up to four Mastery Perks at a time. You can remove a Mastery Perk using the Skill Mastery Perk Remover from the Rewards𝔍꧙ Store to clear one Perk at any time, if you’d like to make space for a new one.

How To Earn More Skill Mastery Perks

Your Sims’ Mastery Perks are obtained through random chance cards in the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Businesses & Hobbies expansion, like the ones you get for work events and other pop-up decisions in the game. The card asks if you’d like to obtain a perk related to the skill yo📖ur Sim is practicing, and you’ll be able to choose from here.

If you’re not looking to build up to a Mastery Perk organically, there are two ways to obtain them. You can either buy the Skill Mastery Perk Bestower from the rewards store, but beware it’s one of the more expensive options at 8,000 satisfaction points ꦉper Mastery Perk you’d like to receive.

Additionally, you could even ask Elders who have Mastery Perks if they’d be willing to share it with you as well. You’ll need to build a strong relationship with this Sim before asking them, so this is easiest done with 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:talented Elders or mentors in your family or those who appear frequently around the neighborhood, but beware that they 🍒still might not agree.

By default, several townie 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Sims around Nordhaven have Mastery Perks when you install the Businesses & Hobbies expansion ♉(not all of them Elders) to provide quicker access to getting them. These Sims include:

Cannonball Coleman, who is a rather Powerful Performer - he was the smooth saxophone player back in The Urbz, so it makes sense!
Jolanda Koopman runs the pottery studio in Iverstad and can bestow the Final Touch Mastery Perk when asked.
Gert Koopman, her husband, has the Creative Aura perk.
Nora Loden runs the coffee shop and can routinely be found In the Zone.

Every Mastery Perk And What It Does In The Sims 4: Businesses & Hobbies

Mastery Perk Name	What it Does
Active Aura	Provides the option to "Activate Active Aura" on themselves, which gives nearby Sims a boost to any Active skills 𒐪they're currently working to build.
Aspirational Creator	This Sim earns 10 ex🍌tra Satisfaction Points when they create something of high-quality (like paintings, cooked meals, and more).
Aspirational Thinker	This Sim earns 20 extra Satisfaction Points when theꦗy spend time working on their mental skills (like Logic, Robotics, and more).
Creative Aura	Provides the option to "Activate Creative Aura" on themselves, which gives nearby Sims a boost to a🌃ny Creative skills they're c💖urrently working to build.
Final Touch	Interacting with a crafted object (like paintings, woodworking items, and any handꦍicrafts) offers the chance to upgrade its quality by one level.
In the Zone	When this Sim is working on their skills, all of their needs remain static for four hours after they begin the skill-🔯building ac🥂tivity to allow for more focused time skill-building.
Mental Aura	Provid🅺es the option to "Activate Mental Aura" on themselves, which gives nearby Sims a boost to any Mental skills they're cuꦫrrently working to build.
Mental Muscles	Your Sim can gain Active skills while working on their Mental skill💝s, but their Fitness-based skills will decline much faster should they neglect actual physiไcal skill-building as well.
Pigeonholed (Active)	Any Sim with a Pigeonholed trait will experience the same effect: they'll be able to gain skills in the named subset (Active, Creative, Mental, and Social) much faster than normal, at the cost of the skills related to the other three categories growing at a 50% slowdown. For example, if your Sim has Pigeongoled (Social) and decides to start working on 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:building the Painting skill at the same time as the Comedy skill, you'll see 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the Comedy skill experience come pouring in when your💛 Sim works on said skill, but they'll gain their Painting skill at half the norma𓆉l pace in exchange.

Powerful Performer	When this Sim is performing, they remove negative moodlets from Sims in the audience and can even au🐠tomatically gai⛦n relationship points with them.
Second Wind	Sometimes when your Sim is building their Active skills, they'll randomly ༒have their Energy, Hunger, Hygiene, and Bladder motives refilled completely. When this happens, any fatigue-based moodlets that prevent them from continuing to exercise will be removed as well.
Secret Spice	Interacting with cooked meals or baked goods offers the option for this S𓂃im to increase the dish's quality by one level.
Skillful Sleep	This Sim can opt for a "Skillful Sleep" instead of simply going to bed at night, which creates something of a clo𓂃ne of that Sim. As their actual body rests through the night, the clone will remain awake practicing skills, and when the real Sim w🐻akes up, they'll immediately gain any skill experience the clone earned overnight.
Space Bender	Allows this Sim to teleport.
Stellar Stamina	Not only does stamina deplete slower wh🐼en this Sim works out, but they'll never find themselves Dangerously Tired, a moodlet that can easily kill Elderly 🧸Sims if they're physically overexerted.
